No one Touched You

“Do you need me to go with you?” His voice was calm while she packed her back and grabbed her sunglasses before turning to him and shaking her head.
“I can handle myself,” she smiled at him and walked towards him leaning on the door. He was wearing a blue shirt and had most of the buttons undone, and Maliah had to hold a grip on herself before she lost to him.
“I know you can, Amore,” he smiled at her and stood straight, giving her space to walk.
“I’ll see you later,” She placed her hand on his chest and moved it downwards before walking away leaving him smiling sheepishly to himself…
If you must know, there was no way Edward was just going to let her go out on her own without sending his boys to stay on watch. But taking from the disliked relationship she had with her father last time, he thought of going to watch over her against her wish.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Maliah stopped at a kid’s clothing store and got new clothes for her brother. The thought of holding him again made her excited as she shopped. She went from one store to another and decided to get all his favorite snacks and drinks before heading home.
After a few more rides, she arrived home and this time it didn’t hurt as before. She felt happy to be here, it made her heart yearn to be here even more. She got to their front porch, rang the doorbell, and got herself ready to see the happiness on their face.
“Maliah?” Her mom called out in an unbelievable tone, before running towards her and engulfing her in a tight hug. She cried on her shoulder vehemently like a child.
“My baby girl. I’m so sorry,” her mom said and she tried to stop herself from another round of tears when Junior shrieked in joy on seeing her in his mother’s arms…
“Oh my baby, come here,” she said happily and he jumped on her smiling so brightly.
“Mom said you went to work and every time I try to call you, it goes straight to voicemail,” he explained as they walked inside the house. while Edward stayed from a distance watching her.
“I’m sorry. I was really busy but I got you a little something to make it up to you,” she presented the snacks and clothes to him, while he jumped up in excitement.
“Where’s father?” She turned to her mom, who went to grab a cup of water for her.
“Thank you,” she smiled and took a sip keeping it back on the table in front of her.
“Your father got a job and he’s working right now,” she told her truthfully and Maliah nodded her head pleased, while Junior left the living room for them to discuss.
“Tell me everything that happened?” Her mom rushed to say, moving closer to her.
“What do you mean?”
“Your dad said you’ve paid the fine and they let him go without killing him. But since you haven’t come to visit since he’s released we were worried something happened to you,” she explained…
“Did they hurt you? Did they do anything to you?” She held her hand and asked questions in a whisper while Maliah shook her head.
“No, I’m fine. They didn’t do anything to me. I was just trying to work out the payment and have some fun. That’s why it took a little time, and I’m so sorry for any harm caused by this,” Maliah said truthfully.
“It’s all good. I’m just glad you’re alright and I’m really sorry for what this family has put you through. I’m sorry for dragging you into your father’s mess. Cause if I had known I would have not let you come back home,” Mrs. Hector’s eyes were already teary, and Maliah hugged her tightly, stopping her from an outburst…
“Shhh. We’re all here together and fine that’s all that matters okay, ” she explained while smiling at her mom.
“So while you were away, Gerald has been here helping with little things we need as your dad got better,” his mom smiled sheepishly.
“Gerald?”
“Like my ex-boyfriend?” And her mom nodded, smiling brightly when the doorbell rang.
“I guess that’s him, he said he was coming over today. Isn’t this just fate that you both meet, ” her mom giggled and Maliah looked at her in shock.
“Go on. Open the door for him,” she urged while Maliah reluctantly stood up and walked to the door.
“Maliah?” He called out in shock.
“Hey,” she smiled at him, but instead he pulled her into a right hug wrapping his hands around her waist.
“How are you?” He smiled brightly at her, and Maliah smiled too, staring at him as they talked.
“I have been good, came here for work, and decided to stop by,” she quickly said.
“Oh well you look really great,” his hands held her hand and made her twirl in front of him while she giggled hard.
“It’s been a while, and I missed you too. I mean you look great,” he said, staring at her in awe while she smiled brightly.
“And you look great too,” she told him back truthfully while he pulled her in for another hug and kissed her cheeks.
From a little distance, one could see Edward gripping the steering wheels while staring at the moment Maliah and the guy were having. His eyes were red, but his lips held this lingering smile, one that didn’t portray any good at all.
“Bring him,” he said to Brandon who nodded slightly at the order before starting the car and driving out.
Maliah had a wonderful time with her family including Gerald who caught on to Maliah’s life and even got her phone number. The sky started to get dark, and Maliah knew it was time to leave.
“I’ll call you guys, once I get to NYC,” she smiled at them, while waving her hands, as Gerald opened the cab door for her.
“I’ll give you a call Maliah,” he smiled and she got into the car and waved at him too…

She arrived at the mansion and immediately she got to the stairs, she noticed Edward standing beside it, causing her to smile.
“You were waiting for me,” she said and walked further but got no response from him. Instead he grabbed her hands forcefully and pulled her to his room ignoring the questions she threw at him and the struggle to free her wrist from his grip.
“Edward, what’s going on?”
“Let me go,”
“Edward?” She kept calling almost in tears.
He pushed her to his bathroom and turned on the shower letting the water pour on them.
“What’s going on?” She asked him now, scared.
“Where did he touch you?”
“Who?” She asked confused
“Where?” He yelled clearly angry, as he looked all over her body, and tore the town she wore exposing her bra, while she gasped.
“Was it here?” He pointed at her neck, and kissed there, while the water kept pouring on their bodies soaking their clothes.
“Was it here?” He turned her around and traced his hands on her back, and as she tried to struggle, he pushed her to the wall and held both her hands behind her back with one of his hands.
He dragged the already torn piece of fabric and traced his hands on her back, kissing different spots while asking gently if it was where he touched her.
“Edward?” She called now in a scared tone, biting her lips and fighting herself from enjoying this. A tear dropped from her eyes, while she felt his lips on her waist and his hand on her back as he continued with the heavy petting.
He sucked on her back and bit her at intervals while she held her breath and turned her neck stopping herself from giving in to that temptation. She knew this was going to leave a bruise on her body but her trial to stop him was a failure.
“Edward… Please,” she pleaded in a crying tone and instantly he stopped and turned her around, letting go of her hands. She gazes at him and notices the anger in his eyes making her turn her eyes away.
“No one gets to touch you except me,” he pushed her hair backward and sucked on her neck…
“No one gets to make you smile or giggle,” he said and lifted her chin, making her stare at him…
“No one gets to do this to you except me,” he kissed her lightly looking at her in a more calm look, and she found herself lost in his gaze, and not even mad at him.
“No one,” he breathed close to her, and turned off the shower, as silence took over with only the noise of their breaths filling the room.
Where was the anger? And fear? Where were they? She thought, staring at him.
He pulled away, grabbed a towel from the towel rag, and wrapped her around it, turning away from the shower like he hadn’t just almost seen every inch of her body…
“I’ll meet you downstairs for dinner,” he breathed out and left the shower, changing his clothes before leaving her in the room.
“What just happened?” Maliah asked herself confused while she tightly held onto the towel wrapped around her…
